I understand maybe not hitting the indexes in Stock, so that could be entry level. A FAST stocker certainly isn't entry level. I don't have an opinion there. Super Stock, I think they need hit at least 1/2 second.

Refering to sugestion #2, I certainly agree. If it's heavy enough for the next class down, make them run there. By the way, how do guys legally run a car over 100 lbs heavy? I hear of people supposedly doing it, but the rule book says the ballast box and contents can't be over 100 lbs total, and anything else has to be bolted to the frame and the nuts welded to the bolts. It would be kinda tough to get that weight bar off real quick for a heads-up, wouldn't it? I'm old and kinda slow, so could somebody please enlighten me?

Thanks.
